Oh, it's easily explained:

GOD DID IT.

There!

[allisnow]

LOL.

It's not the most original catch-all, I admit, but I've seen worse.

[mrv3000]

But, of course, it doesn't like to be called that.

good-then can someone explain it to Me?
what was Kara-an angel? child of the missing Cylon Daniel?
Confused the hell out of me.

Kara is an angel/Christ figure. She really died, and was really resurrected to complete her special destiny.

Ron Moore admitted in a recent podcast that Daniel was NEVER intended to grab so many people, and start so many theories. Daniel was simply a way to fill the numbers gap in the cylons, and to give an example of Caval's jealousy/cruelty/etc. He did sound fairly apologetic about it.

But sometimes when you're a writer the best ideas start out as accidents :D

[gowdie]

Yeah. I wonder, if it hadn't been the last season, and if the rest of the episodes hadn't been finished and in the can, if he would have done something with it.

I read his comments as he had no idea people would grab onto this idea so hard. And he was warning us not to expect anything to come of it in the finale. At that point, there was nothing he could do. And since they generally avoid spoilers like whoa, the fact he was telling us outright this will not happen, speaks to how apologetic he was about it.

So I wonder if this had happened, say in the third season, and they had seen the massive fan reaction, if they might have considered exploring Daniel more on the show.

I went and wrote this huge, long thesis on all the things that confused and confounded me and you went and said it better in one word.

I'm never trusting Ron Moore again...

If there's going to be this much crack, random characters really should start glowing and floating.

[allisnow]

That's interesting, because there have been many times over the course of the show where I've gone "Damn, I wish I never started watching this show". But this finale made me happy that I stuck with it.

[allisnow]

That was a rough patch for me, too. But it's worth remembering that, iirc, S3 is when SciFi started interfering with the show.

I wasn't disappointed at all. Sad, very sad at some parts, but not disappointed.

[gowdie]

I loved it. But then I guess I always expected god/angels to be playing a pretty big role. Since ChipSix had done so much that was unexplainable - physically moving Gaius, repeatedly predicting future events - I figured she either had to be an angel, or a devil. And I'm happier with angel.

[allisnow]

Agreed.

[mrv3000]

She physically moved Gaius? I guess I didn't remember that.
